arXiv:2607. 05978v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models can emit localized predictions, bounding boxes for objects and temporal windows for video and audio events, but they hallucinate these regions prolifically.

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are promising for construction-site monitoring, and recent construction-tailored VLMs have primarily adapted pretrained VLMs through direct QA-style fine-tuning from a single global image. We argue that this direct paradigm remains limited for in-the-wild deployment in terms of operational range, reliability under reduced-resolution inputs, and inference efficiency.
Robust visual classification often depends on localizing the main foreground objects in an image while ignoring contextual distractors. Surprisingly, we find that the attention maps of smaller self-supervised ViTs localize foreground objects better than those of larger ViTs.

arXiv:2607. 00434v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) have become a paradigm for multimodal learning, yet remain unstable due to object hallucination, weak visual grounding, and catastrophic forgetting after full-parameter instruction tuning.
